I'm a writer. I guess you would say my love of literature defines me, at least online, where I use the net for meeting writers, researching the craft and industry, whatever.

I'm a country girl -- I love Trace Adkins, Garth Brooks and Tobey Keith. On the girl side I love Taylor Swift. If you're a fan of Taylor you've probably seen her video for LOVE STORY-- its basically a music video for the plot to PRADA & PREJUDICE, so if you wish you could be her in that video, check out my book! :-)

I love the equivalent of a beach read on the big screen- Mean Girls, Sweet Home Alabama, Blue Crush, etc. My all time favorites are the late 90's high school comedies, like CANT HARDLY WAIT, SHE's ALL THAT, etc.
But aside from that, my favorite movie is EMPIRE RECORDS.
I Don't feel the need to explain my art to you, Warren!!
Televizyon
House, THE OFFICE, CSI, Rob and Big, Veronica Mars, Gossip Girl, The OC, etc.

Kimle tanışmak isterim: So, what's the book about? Read below to find out!
Callie falls head over heels—literally…
and wakes up in Austen-Era England!
Fifteen-year-old Callie buys a pair of real Prada pumps to impress the cool crowd on a school trip to London . Goodbye, Callie the clumsy geek-girl, hello popularity! But before she knows what’s hit her, Callie wobbles, trips, conks her head… and wakes up in the year 1815!
She stumbles about until she meets the kind-hearted Emily, who takes Callie in, mistaking her for a long-lost friend. Sparks soon fly between Callie and Emily’s cousin, Alex, the maddeningly handsome—though totally arrogant—Duke of Harksbury. Too bad he seems to have something sinister up his ruffled sleeve…
From face-planting off velvet piano benches and hiding behind claw-foot couches to streaking through the estate halls wearing nothing but an itchy blanket, Callie’s curiosity about Alex creates all kinds of trouble.
But the grandfather clock is ticking on her 19th Century shenanigans. Can Callie save Emily from a dire engagement, win a kiss from Alex, and prove to herself that she’s more than just a loud-mouth klutz before her time there is up?
It was awesome. I had to do some summer reading for school before starting it...and I actually have to read PRIDE and Prejudice too :) I LOVED your book. I'm recommending it to everyone I know! Callie's character was great, and I absolutely loved how it came full circle in the end! I started reading it at like 10PM the other night, finished by 11AM the next morning. (Of course I slept...)Also, I friended you on Facebook, so if you see a Katie Hunsberger friend request, it's me! You really are an inspiration, Mandy. It gives me hope that as a FP writer, I can make it there some day. :)
Hi, Sorry I wasnt able to come to your book launch party... I ended up being in the hospital that day, I wasnt feeling good, and they kept me for the night. ( i was miserable) Any ways i had my little one on July 7th. His name is Colton =) he is a Cutie.

OH MY GOSH!! MANDY thats GREAT!!! I'm sooo incredibly happy for you! You must feel soo accomplished! thats awesome!! Im going to barnes and noble soon so i will be sure to buy it!
Hey, Mandy! I JUST picked up P&P today down at the beach! I saw it in this little bookshop, and honestly, they had only really well-known books! (which is amazing, considering this is your first novel!) I knew it was out, and I happened to just stroll by! It was in the WINDOW! Just letting you know I got it! :) Good luck with it all! I'll let you know what I thought of it!
Wow long time! thank you so much for the FFA comment and i'm reallly blessed to know you still remember me! i'd love to make it to your signing, and i will honestly try to make it! God Bless
I'm glad to hear that Taylor received a copy of your book! That's so exciting, she's one of my favorite music artists around right now so I can't even begin to imagine how elated you feel!
I just realized that your book will be out 3 days before I go on my summer vacation to Montana. I can't wait to pick it up and bring it with me for the ride. It will be the perfect way to pass the time, can't wait! =)
I'm a pretty common extra for The Hillywood Show, but it's usually several blink and you'll miss me cameo's LOL! You should check out some of their other spoofs. The girls are really creative and funny =)
Thank you!!! Im due in July. Im really excited. Kindof sad because Ive had to put my horses on hold for a little bit. Your book "prada and prejudice" sounds really good. I really want to read it. How has life been, its been along time!!
